Taliban is beyond ridiculous. But there were two things I read, that while way overstated, I think have some truth in them:

1."The so-called freedom of women in the West is an illusion and is an insult to women".

2."The women of the West are only concerned with their rights and not at all concerned with their duties and responsibilities as wives and mothers,"

Flame suit on!

I hope its made of good old-fashioned asbestos.

The so called "freedom" that most conservative women (such as most of the women you would find in this forum) find insulting is the "freedom of choice." Most conservative women know that our real choice comes when we decide to have sex. The question of butchering an inconvenient life never comes up for most conservative women. We know that "freedom of choice" really means "freedom from responsibility."

"The women of the West are only concerned with their rights and not at all concerned with their duties and responsibilities as wives and mothers."

You agree with this? Keep in mind that this is a conservative forum. You should be posting comments like this over on Salon or DU. All you are doing here is insulting conservative women.

First off: I don't mean to "flame". I just want to clear up a couple of misconceptions in these quotes:

1. The "freedoms" that were yelled about (and thus finally granted) by groups such as N.O.W., Planned Parenthood and every other liberal organizations CLAIMING to represent the women of this Country have done more to harm REAL woman than anything ANY man could have conceived of. Now thanks to these idiotic groups, those of us who enjoy acting and being treated like ladies must hold down jobs, open our own doors, defend ourselves, etc. (you get the picture). Many, many of us would MUCH rather be at home raising our children and cooking dinner than dealing with guilt because we can't do it all. Of course, we have our government to thank for part of this problem. If my husband got to actually KEEP what he makes, I COULD stay home!

2. See # 1.
